j TEX T OF DEMOCRA TIC PL A TFORM\ St. Louie, Mo.. c-Following' Is a copy of the democratic platform "Tiie democratic party, in national convention assembled, adopts the fol lowing declaration to the end that the people of the United States may both i realize the achievements wrought by four years of democratic administra tion and be apprised of the policies to which the party is committed for the further conduct of national affairs. “We indorse the administration of Woodrow 'Wilson. It speaks for Itself It is the best exhibition of sound dem ocratic policy at home and abroad "Wo challenge comparison of our ree- I ord, our keeping of pledges and our constructive legislation with those of any party at any time. Federal Reserve Law. “We found our country hampered by special privileges, a vicious tariff, ob solete banking laws and an inelastic currency. Our foreign affairs were dominated by commercial interests for their selfish ends. The republican party, despite repeated pledges, was Impotent to correct abuses which u had fostered. Under our administra tion. under a leadership wh.eh has ■ never faltered, these abuses have been corrected and our people have been freed therefrom. "Our archaic banking and currency system, prolific of panic and disaster under republican administrations iong the refuge of the money mist ime been supplanted by the federal re serve irt. a true democracy of credit .... i ...wm f <-»rm t rn! JllrOQXlV proved a financial bulwark in a- world crisis, mobilizing our resources, Plac ing abundant credit at the disposal or legitimate Industry and making a cur rency' panic impossible. • \Ve have created a federal trade commission to accommodate the per plexing questions arising under the antitrust laws so that monopoly may be strangled at its birth and legitimate Industry encouraged Fair competition in business is now assured. Tariff Adjustment. "We have effected an adjustment of th» mriff. adequate for revenue under pence conditions and fair to the con sumer and to the producer. We have adjusted the burdens of taxation so that, swollen incomes hoar their equita ble share. Our revenues have been sufficient in times of world stress and will largely exceed the expenditures for the current fiscal year. "Wo nave lifted human labor from the category of commodities and have se cured to the workingman the right of voluntary association for his protection and welfare. We have protected the rights of the laborer against the un warranted issue of writs of injunction, and have guaranteed to him the right of trial by jury in alleged contempt cases committed outside the presence of the court. “Wo have advanced the parr '1 post to genuine efficiency', enlarged the postal savings system, added 10,000 rural de livery routes and extensions, thus reaching t',r>OO.GOO additional people, improved the posiai service in every branch and foi: the first time in our history placed the posteflice system on :i self supporting basis, with actual surplus in 1013, 1914 and 1916. Economic Freedom. "The reforms which were most ob viously needed to clear away privi lege, prevent unfair discrimination and release the energies of men of all ranks and advantages, have been effected by recent legislation. We must now re move. so far as possible, every remain ing element of unrest and uncertainty from the path of the business men of America and secure for them a con tinued period of quiet, assured and confident prosperity. "We reaffirm our belief in the doct rine of a tariff for five purpose of pro viding sufficient revenue lor operation of the government, economically admin islercd and unreservedly indorse the Underwood tariff law as truly exemp lifying that doctrine. We recognize that tariff rates are necessarily subject to change to meet changing conditions in tee world’s production and trade. The events of the last two years have brought about many momentous changes. In some respects their effects arc yet conjectural and wait to be dis closed. particularly in regard to our foreign trade. Two yours or a war s, men mm m rocily involved most of the chief in dustrial nations of tlie world, and ■which has indirectly affected the life and industry of all nations are bring ing about economic changes more var ied and, far reaching than the world has ever before experienced. In order to ascertain just what these changes may be tlie democratic congress is provid ing for a nonpartisan tariff commission to make impartial and thorough study of every economic fact that may- throw light either upon our past or upon our future fiscal policy witii regard to the Imposition of taxes on imports or with regard to tlie changed and changing conditions under which our trade is carried on. We cordially indorse this timely proposal and declare ourselves la sympathy- wfth the principle and purpose of shaping legislation within that field in accordance with clearly established facta rather than in ac cordance with tlie demands of selfish interests or upon information provided largely, if not exclusively by them. (Hen: U inserted tile plank on Ameri canism quoted iii column (i, page 1, of this Issue of The Tribune). Preparedness. "Along with the proof of our char acter as a nation, must go the proof of our power to play tlie part that le gitimately belongs to us. The people of the United States love peace. They respect the rights and covet the friend ship of all other nations. They desire neither any additional territory nor any advantage which cannot lie peace fully gained by their skill, their indus try, or their enterprise; hut they in sist upon having absolute freedom of national life and policy and feel tli.it they owe it to themselves and to the role- of spirited independence, which it is iheir sole ambition to play, that they should render themselves secure against the hazard of interference from any quarter and should be ubie to pro tfict their rights upon the seas or in any part of the world. We, therefore, favor tlie maintenance of an army fully adequate to the requirements of order, of safety and of the protection of the nation s rights, tlie fullest de velopment of modern methods of sea coast defense ai.-d the maintenance of an adequate reserve ot citizens trained to arms and prtpared to safeguard the people and territory of the United States against any danger of hostile action which nuy unexpectedly arise; and a fixed policy for tne continuous development of a navy worthy to sup port tlie great naval traditions of the ■United States, and fully equal to the International trsks which the United States hopes and expects to take a part in performing. The plans and en actments of tie present congress af ford substantial proof of our purpose In this exigent mat's:-. Neutrality und U. o. Interests. “Toe democratic administration has I throughout the present war scrupulous- j 1)- and successfully held to the old paths i of neutrality and of the peaceful pm- I ton! of t) * legitimate objects of our j national ills', winch sierocmen of all t parties an a creeds Slave prescribed for themselves in America since the be ginning of our history. But the circum sto.ncoii of the last two years have re vealed necessities of international ac - tion. which no former generation can have fiirseon. We hold that it is the duty of the United States to use its power, not only to make itself safe at home, bur also to make secure Us Just interests throughout, the world and both for this end anti in the interest of hu manity to assist the world in securing settled peace and justice. For League of Nations. "We believe that every people has the right to choose the sovereignty under which it shall live; that the small states of the world hove o. right to enjoy from other nations the same respect for their sovereignty and for their territorial in tegrity that great and powerful nations expect and insist upon; and that the world has a right to be free from every disturbance of its peace that has its origin in aggression or disregard of liie rights of peoples and nations; and we believe that the time has come when it is tie duty of the l nited SLates to Join with the other nations of the world in any feasible association that will ef fectively serve these principles, to maintain inviolate and complete se curity of the high way of the seas for the common a.nd unhindered use of all nations. oasis hor World Leaguo. "The present administration has con sistently sought to act upon and real ize in its conduct of tho foreign affairs of the nation the principles that should be the object of tho association of the nations formed to secure the peace of the world and then the maintenance of national and individual rights. It was followed the highest American tradi tion. It has preferred respect for the fundamental rights of smaller states even to property interests, and has se cured the friendship of the people of these states for the United .States by refusing to make a more material In terest an excuSe for the assertion of our superior power against the dignity of their soverign independence. It has regarded the lives of its citizens and the claims of humanity as of greater moment than material rights and peace ns the best basis for the just settle ment of commercial claims. It has made the honor and ideals of the United States its standard alike in ne gotiation and action. Pan A mericanism. “We recognize now as we have al ways recognized, a. definite and common interest between the United States with the other peoples and republicans of the western hemisphere in all matters of national independence and free de velopment. We favor the establishment and maintenance of the closest rela tions of amity and mutual helpfulness between the United States and the other republics of the American con tinents for the support of peace and the promotion of a common prosperity. To that end we favor all measures which may he necessary to facilitate intimate intercourse and promote com merce between the United States and her neighbors to the south of us, and such international understandings as may be practicable and suitable to ac complish these ends. We commend the action of the demo cratic administration in holding the Pan-American financial conference at Washington in May, 1915, and organiz ing the international high commission which represented the United States in the recent meeting of representatives of the Latin-American republics at Buenos Aires, April, 1916, which have greatly promoted the friendly relations between the people of the western hi misphere. Monroe Doctrine. Tho Monroe doctrine is reasserted as the principle of democratic faith. That doctrine guarantees the independent republics of the two Amerieas against aggression from another continent. It implies as well, the most scrupulous regard upon our part for the sovereign ty of eaclt of them. Mexican Policy. The want of a stable, responsible government in Mexico capable of re pressing and punishing marauders and bandit bands, who have not only taken the lives and seized and destroyed the property of American citizens in that country, but have insolently invaded our soil, made war upon and murdered our people thereon, has rendered it necessary temporarily to occupy by our armed forces a portion of the territory of that friendly state. Until, by tho re storation of law and order, therein, a repetition of such incursions is improb able. tho necessity of their remaining will continue "Intervention, implying as it does, military subjugation, is revolting tv the people of the United States, notwith standing the provocation to that course has been great and should be resorted to, if at all, as a last resort. The stubborn resistance of the president and his advisers to every demand and suggestion to enter upon it, is cred itable alike to them and to the people in whose name he speaks." Merchant Marine. “Immediate provision should be made for the development of the carrying trade of the United States. Our for eign commerce has in the past been subject to many unnecessary and vex atious obstacles in the way or legisla tion of republican congresses. Until recent democratic tariff legislation, il was hampered by unreasonable bur dens of taxation. Until ice recent banking legislation it bad at its dis posal few instrumentalities of interna tional credit and exchange. Until the formulation of the pending act to pro mote the construction of a merchant marine, it lacked even the prospect <f adequate carriage by sea. We heartily Indorse the purposes and policy of the pending shipping bill and favor all such additional measures of construc tive or remedial legislation as may be necessary to restore our flag to the seas and to provide further facilities for our foreign commerce, particularly such laws as may be made to remove unfair conditions of competition in the dealings of American merchants and producers with competitors in foreign markets. Conservation. "For the safeguarding and quickening of the life of our own people we favor the conservation and development of the unnatural resources of the country through a policy which shall be posi tive rather than negative—a policy which shall not withhold such re sources front development, but which, while permitting and encouraging their use, shall prevent Loth waste aivi mo nopoly in their exploitation, and we earnestly favor the passage of acts which will accomplish these objects, and we reaffirm the declaration of the Platform of 1912 on this subject. "The policy of reclaiming our arid lands Is to be steadily adhered to. Tne Administration and tho Farmers. ; "We favor the vigorous prosecution j °f investig iuns and plans to render agriculture more profitable and conn- I try life more healthful, comfortable! and attractive and we believe that | this should be a dominant aim of the nation, as well as of the states. With all its tevent in” vi-aical, farming' A still lags behind other occupations In development as a business, and the advantages of an advancing civiliza tion have not accrued to rural commu nities in a fair proportion. Much has been accomplished in this field under the present administration—far more than tinder any previous administra tion. In the federal reserve act of the last congress and the rural credits act of the present congress, the machinery has been created which will make credit available to the farmer con stantly and readily and he has at last been put upon a footing of equality with the merchant and the manufac turer In securing the capital necessary to carry on his enterprises. Grades and standards necessary to the intel ligent and successful conduct of the business of agriculture have also been established or in the ceurse of being established by law. "The long needed cotton futures act. passed by the Sixty third congress has now been In successful operation for nearly two years. A grain trades bill, tong needed and a permissive ware house bill, intended to provide better storage facilities and to enable the farmer to obtain certificates upon which he may secure advances of moneyfl have been passed by the House of Representatives, have been favorably reported to tlie Senate and will prob ably become law during the present session of the congress. Both houses have passed a good roads measure which will be of far reaching benefit to ail agricultural communities, jtmivt all, the most extraordinary and signifi cant progress has been made under the direction of the depaitment of agri culture in extending and perfecting practical farm demonstration work, whicli is so rapidly substituting scien tific for empirical farming. But it is also necessary that rural activities be better directed through cooperation, that unfair methods of competition should be eliminated and that the con ditions requisite for the just, orderly and economical marketing of farm products created. We approve the democratic administration for having emphatically directed attention for the first time to essential interests of agri culture involved in farm marketing and finance, for creating the dfflee' of mar kets and rural organization in connec tion with the department of agricul ture and for extending and cooperative machinery necessary for conveying in formation to farmers by means of demonstrations. We favor continued liberal provision not only for the bene fit of production, but also lor the study and solution of problems of farm mar keting and finance and for the exten sion of existing agencies for improving country life. Good Roads. “The happiness, comfort and prosper ity of rural life and the development of the city are alike conserved by the con struction of public highways. We therefore, favor national aid in the con struction of post roads and roads for military purposes. Government Employment. “We hold that the lift, health and strength of the men, women and chil dren of the nation, are its greatest as set and that in the conservation of these the federal government wherever it acts as the employer of labor, should both on its own account and as an ex ample, put into effect the followifig principles of just employment: “1. A living wage for all employes. “2. A working day not to exceed eight hours, with one day of rest in seven. “3. The adoption of safety appliances and the establishment of thoroughly sanitary conditions of labor. “4. Adequate compensation for in dustrial accidents. “5, The standards of the "uniform child labor law” wherever minors are employed. o. ruicn provisions ior aecenay, comfort and health in the employment of women as should be accorded the mothers of the race. “7. An equitable retirement law pro viding for the retirement of superan nuated and disabled employes of the civil service, to the end that a higher standard of efficiency may be main tained. We beieve also that the adop tion of similar principles should be urged and applied in the legislation of the states, with regard to labor within their borders, and that through every possible agency the life and health of j the people of the nation should be con served. Labor. “We declare our faith In the Seaman’s act, passed by the democratic congress and we promise our earnest continu ance of its enforcement. “We favor the speedy enactment of an effective federal child labor law and the regulation of the shipment of prison made goods in interstate commerce. “We favor the creation of a federal bureau of safety in the department of labor to gather facts concerning indus trial hazards, and to recommend legis lation to prevent the maiming and kill ing of human beings. “We favor the extension of the powers and functions of the federal bureau of mines. "We favor the development upon a systematic: scale of the means already begun under the present administration to assist laborers throughout the nation to seek and obtain employment and the extension by the federal government, by the same assistance and encourage ments as is now given to agricultural training. “We heartily commend our newly es tablished department of labor for its excellent record in settling industrial strikes by personal advice and through councillating agents. "We favor a thorough reconsidera tion of the means and methods by which the federal government handles questions of public health, to the end that human life may be conserved by the elimination of loathsome diseases, the improvement of sanitation and the diffusion of a knowledge of disease prevention. ‘We favor establishment by the fed eral government of tuberculosis sani tariums for needy tuberculosis pa tients. Senate Rules. “We favor such an alternation of th" rules of procedure of the Senate of the United States ’ as will permit the prompt transaction of the nation's legislative business. Economy and the Budget. “We favor careful economy in all ex penditures fur the support of the gov ernment and to that end favor a return by the House of Representatives to its former practice of initiating and pre paring all appropriation bills through a single committee chosen from its membership, in order thrt responsibil ity may be centered, expenditures standardized and made uniform and waste and duplication in the public service as much as possible avoided. "We favor this as a practicable first step towards a budget system. Civil Service. “We reaffirm our declarations for the rigid enforcement of the civil service laws. Philippine Islands. “We heartily indorse the provisions of the bill recently passed by the House of Representatives, further pro moting self government in the Philip pins Islands as being In fulfillment of the policy declared by the democratic party In its last national platform, and we reiterate our Indorsement of the purpose of ultimate Independence for the Philippine islands, expressed in the preamble of that measure. Woman Suffrage. "We recommend the extension of franchise to the women of the country by the states upon the same terms as to men. Protection of Citizens. “We again declare the policy that tho sacred rights of American citizenship must be preserved at home and abroad and that no treaty with any other gov ernment shall receive the sanction of our "overnir.ent which docs not ex pressly recognize the absolute equality of ail our citizens, irrespective of race, creed or previous nationality, and which does not recognize the right of expatriation. The American govern ment should protect American citizens in their rights not only at home, but abroad, and any country having a gov ernment should be held to strict ac countability for any wrongs done them, cither to person or to property. At tbs earliest practical opportunity our country should strive earnestly for peace among tho warring nations of Europe and seek to bring about the adoption of tho fundamental principle of justice and humanity, that all men sha.ll enjoy equality of rights and free dom from discrimination in the lands wherein they dwell. D-d.i "We demand that tho modern prin ciples of prison reform be applied in our federaT penal system. We favor such work for 'prisoners ac shall give them training In remunerative occu pations, so that they may make an honest living when released from pris on ; the setting apart of the net wages of the prisoner to be paid to his de pendent family or to be reserved for his own use upon his release; the lib eral extension .of the principles of tho federal parole law with due regard both to the welfare of tho prisoner and tho Interests of society; the adoption of tho probation system, especially in the case of first offenders not convicted of .serious crimes. tensions. “We renew the declaration of recent democratic platforms relating to gen erous pensions for soldiers and their widows and call attention to our record of performance in this particular. "We renew the declaration in our last two platforms relating to the develop ment of our waterways. The recant de vastation of the lower Mississippi val ley and several other sections by floods accentuates the movement for the reg ulation of river flow by additional bank and levee protection below the diver sion storage and control of the flood waters above, and their utilization for beneficial purposes in the reclamation of arid and swamp lands and develop ment of water power, instead of permlt toing the floods to continue as hereto fore, agents of destruction. We hold that the control of the Mississippi river is a national problem. The preservation of the depth of its waters for purposes of navigation, the building of levees and works of bank protection to maintain the Integrity of its channel and prevent the overflow of its valley resulting in the interruption of interstate commerce, the disorganization of the mail service and the enormous loss of live and pro perty Impose an obligation, which alone can be discharged by the national gov ernment. “We favor the adoption of a liberal and comprehensive plfin for the de velopment and improvement of our har bors and inland Waterways with economy and efficiency so as to permit their navigation by vessels of standard draft. M laSKjTa "It has been and will be the policy of the democartic party to enact all laws necessary for the speedy development of Alaska and its great natural resour ces. T erritorles. "We favor granting to the people of Alaska, Hawaii and Porto Rico, the traditional territorial government ac corded to all territories of the United States since the beginning of our gov ernment and we believe the officials appointed to administer the government of these several territories should be qualified by previous honafide resi dence. Candidates. “We unreservedly Indorse our presi dent and vice president, Woodrow Wil son, of New Jersey, and Thomas Riley Marshall, of Ind'arca, who have per formed the functions of their great of fices faithfully an.J impartially and with distinguished ability, in particular, w« commend to the American people the splendid diplomatic victories of out great president, who has served the vital interests of cur government and its citizens and.kept us out of war. “Woodrow Wilsan stands today the greatest American of his generation. Conclusion. "This Is a critical hour In the historj of America, a critical hour in the his tory of tiie world Upon the record above set forth wbt :h shows great con structive iichlevenJe.-it In following out a consistent policy for our domestic and internal development; upon the record of the democratic administra tion, which has maintained the honor, the dignity, the in’.e-ests of the United States and at the same time retained the respect and friendship of all the nations of the world and upon the great policies for the future strengthening of the life cf our country, the enlarge ment of our national vision and the ennobling of our international rela tions as set forth a have, we appeal with confidence to the voters of the coun try.” “Safety First.” From the Saturday Evening Post.

THAT INFANTS are peculiarly susceptible to opium and its variouar preparations, all of which are narcotic, is well known. Even in the smallest coses, if continued, these opiates cause changes in the func tions and growth of the cells which are likely to become permanent, causing imbecility, mental perversion, a craving for alcohol or narcotics in later life. Nervous diseases, such as intractable nervous dyspepsia and lack of staying powers are a result of dosing with opiates or narcotics to keep children quiet: tn their infancy. The rule among physicians is that children should never receive opiates in the smallest doses for more than a day at a time, andi only then if unavoidable. The administration of Anodynes, Drops, Cordials, Soothing Syrups and other narcotics to children by any but a physician cannot lie too strongly decried, and the druggist should not be a party to it. Children who are ill need the attention of a physician, and it is nothing less than a crime to dose them willfully with narcotics. t Castoria contains no narcotics if it bears tl signature of Chas.
